Customize parameter names

The x-fern-parameter-name extension allows you to customize the variable names of parameters in your generated SDKs.

Headers

In the example below, the header X-API-Version is renamed to version in the generated SDK. The rename makes the SDK more human readable.

1paths:
2  "/user":
3    get:
4      operationId: list_user
5      parameters:
6        - in: header
7          name: X-API-Version
8          x-fern-parameter-name: version
9          schema:
10            type: string
11          required: true

Query parameters

In the example below, the query parameter q is renamed to search_terms in the generated SDK. The rename makes the parameter more approachable for end users.

1paths:
2  "/user/search":
3    get:
4      operationId: search_user
5      parameters:
6        - in: query
7          name: q
8          x-fern-parameter-name: search_terms
9          schema:
10            type: string
11          required: false

Path parameters

In the example below, the path parameter userId is renamed to id in the generated SDK. The rename makes the SDK less verbose.

1paths:
2  "/user/{userId}":
3    get:
4      operationId: get_user
5      parameters:
6        - in: path
7          name: userId
8          x-fern-parameter-name: id
9          schema:
10            type: string
11          required: false
